The past several years we haven't had any trick or treaters. Even though we live on one of the main roads in our rural town, there are no sidewalks and few streetlights. The fire departments hosts a party on the town green and the firehouse. So this year, I didn't buy any candy (though I'm salivating at the thought of leftover Mounds bars). I did bake a yellow cake for Ink's birthday. He enjoys a crumb or two of yellow cake. And The Eldest and I watched Corpse Bride on Netflix.

I got about 50. I used to get an average of 120 or so. In fact I had only 2 kids by the time it was close to 7:30pm! I was handing the candy out in droves. I ended up getting older kids and had to turn the last few away because I ran out of candy-felt bad but I didn't want to have any left over
